Located around 65 km from Chamba town, Bharmour is a serene and spiritually charged destination often known as the Land of Gods or “Shiv Bhumi.” Tucked amidst the majestic Pir Panjal ranges of Himachal Pradesh, Bharmour is where history, faith, and nature blend together to create an experience that touches both heart and soul.
Once the ancient capital of the Chamba Kingdom, Bharmour still carries the charm of old Himalayan traditions and architecture. At its heart lies the famous Chaurasi Temple Complex, home to 84 ancient shrines dedicated to Lord Shiva and various deities. The rhythmic sound of temple bells, the scent of incense in the mountain air, and the peaceful aura around the complex make it a divine experience for every visitor.
But Bharmour isn’t just about temples it’s also the gateway to adventure and pilgrimage. It serves as the base point for the sacred Manimahesh Yatra, an annual journey that leads devotees and trekkers to the pristine Manimahesh Lake, nestled at an altitude of 13,000 feet beneath the shadow of the sacred Kailash Peak. The trek is both physically challenging and spiritually uplifting, offering breathtaking views, glaciers, and pure alpine air.
Beyond spirituality, Bharmour is a paradise for nature lovers and explorers. The valley bursts into color with apple orchards, pine forests, and snow-draped peaks during spring and autumn. Friendly locals, their traditional wooden homes, and the simple rhythm of mountain life make Bharmour a place where time slows down — inviting you to just breathe and be.
Whether you’re wandering through the ancient lanes of the Chaurasi Temple Complex, embarking on the Manimahesh trek, or simply gazing at the golden hues of sunset over the Himalayas, Bharmour offers something truly timeless peace, purity, and connection.
So if you’re planning your next Himachal escape, let Bharmour be on your list. It’s not just a destination it’s an experience of divinity, history, and the untouched beauty of the mountains.
